PPC and SEO/Internet Marketing campaigns compliment each other well especially using the PPC campaigns for quick keyword research to analyse instant results.

This being said in recent times I have actually personally recommended that clients don't run an Adwords campaign the instant that they submit their website into Google as opposed to what you are saying in part of this article.

I am investigating the theory that if you start to run Adwords campaigns very early in a websites history that Google is going to have less of a preference of improving the SEO rank of that website, for their own gain more than anything. It could be seen that why would Google start to organically rank your website for free at the top of the results when you are already paying them money to get visitors. Another theory is that if you start putting money into an Adwords account early on then it looks as if you are not confident that the website will be found organically, this could act as a negative identifier for Google.

These are of course theories however I have had more success from building websites and submitting them to Google and waiting a few weeks for the initial crawls to settle down before implementing an Adwords campaign. I also tend to get better Quality Scores through this method.
